Everything about the Peryton screamed pastel at me, so...

Here is my entry, the [b]Wasp Mith[/b]!
She is based off of a Texas Wasp Moth, because I think it would be pretty BAMF for a Mith to masquerade as a wasp in order to better protect herself! Ideally, if this won, I would love for the black parts on her to have a slight iridescent quality, [url=http://m6.i.pbase.com/o2/98/8198/1/103530756.N3SGg4DO.mothstripedid.jpg]like how it actually is on the real, moth-y inspiration[/url]!

The yellow in her wing base isn't meant to be shading, but just her body colour merging into her wings. If it would cause problems, [url=http://i974.photobucket.com/albums/ae226/ddragonpuff/Flight%20Rising/NoWingBits_zpsit0js9rd.png]here is a version without that added in[/url].

That should work [edit: does work. Success!], but I don't know much about uploading.
Anyway, I based my Peryton on a white-tailed deer and a Canada goose- we get a lot of both of those around here, and it interested me to combine them.
It's definitely not as impressive as some of the other things I'm seeing here, but I advanced both my skill at coloring and my knowledge of Photoshop tools, so I'd consider this a success!

The more rare type of yeti, as their hide isn't as good as the coarsefurs regarding winterland camouflage, but they make up for it in sheer muscle and an irrational sense of pride.
